The UTC Day
Students at the Greater Peterborough UTC start their school day at 9.00am and finish at 3.45pm. The longer school day ensures that students have ample time to undertake their specialist technical qualification, GCSEs/A Levels, as well as take part in enrichment and employer projects. The school week also includes student assemblies.
